  • Name: Dr. N. Prakash Prabhu
  • Mail: nppsluohyd.ac.in
  • Contact: 040-2313 4593
  • Area Of Research:Protein dynamics, folding and fibrillation: Spectroscopy and computational simulation

We are interested on the effect of osmolytes on protein structure, stability, and fibrillation propensity. We are also studying the effect of molecular crowding and confinement on the fibrillation of proteins. We are investigating these phenomena using spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. We also employ computational modeling and dynamic (MD) simulation to understand the molecular mechanisms behind these effects.
